this epoch started sometime between 1950 and 1954, according to the scientists. While there is evidence worldwide that captures the impact of burning fossil fuels, detonating nuclear weapons and dumping fertilizers and plastics on land and in waterways

None of these are world-historical events, compared to the ultimate world-historical event occurring in 1952: the advent of rock-and-roll, forever changing the nature of non-classical music. (/s)

The Associated Press is the WEF/NWO’s propaganda central and wiping up their rear is Routers along with their bastardized servants, the alphabet MSM.

It is going to be so glorious when the likes of Colin Waters and Paul Crutzen are wiped out by the Anthropocene period.

Just like “Piltdown Man” was going to prove the missing link between Humans and Simeans.

Keep trying, GloboHomo’s. Keep trying.

A.k.a., the “Green Revolution” (in its original positive sense, denoting the explosion of abundant food supplies due to better fertilizers and efficient agriculture).

The most recent, and according to extensive study the most impactful period of archaeological time has been named the Feikneusostene Epoch.

The usual BOHICA kind.

Grab your wallet, gather up the kids, and don’t turn your back on them.

These people think sodomy and pedosexualism is the only way to save muver erf.

It’s ‘ science ‘.

It is still the Holocene!!

The earth may very well be overpopulated. Cutting China’s population by 800 million would be a great start.

When did this start? We can reliably date this to the Decade of the 1950s and the advent of Rock and Roll, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Elvis when they turned up the dial to "11".

Ok. Humor off. I would say that it started with the first Atomic Bomb in the 1940s, or maybe with the large scale use of plastics. They will date this epoch to the "Plastic and Radioactive iosotope layer" that was laid down before the general decline of mankind ability to reproduce due to the estrogen mimicing effect of plastic. (That and death resulting from the WEF Clot Shots and whatever else they have secretly planned and are able to implement through tools like Pedo Joe.)

"What a Party!" SNL Gremlin predicting the future!

“It’s quite clear that the scale of change has intensified unbelievably and that has to be human impact.

Guess volcano activity isn’t a factor in the process yep it’s all the evil human beings fault.
